Welcome again to a brand new month dear harvester! My prayer for you is that you are going to enjoy supernatural help from God making it possible for you to live to the fullness of your God’s given potential in Jesus name. We are not just going to discover that we are made for more, but you will be developed for more and be deployed to live life to the fullest. If you are like me, I know that there is something inside of you that yearns for more even though there are situations in your life that makes you doubt it’s attainable. Yet, you ought not to settle for the average life because God designed you for more.
In Genesis 1:28, God blessed man with fruitfulness, multiplication, capacity to replenish and subdue which all leads to having dominion. From the bible verse, it’s obvious that God wants us
to make progress and he has made the globe our stage. The time has now come for us to start thinking multiplication. Impact is the essence of living. I recently was flying through John F Kennedy airport in New York and it really dawned on me that it was named after him because of his impact on the
nation. As believers, we cannot afford to live for ourselves instead our entire lives should be lived committed to God’s plan and purposes which is revealed to us already through his word.
After Jesus paid the ultimate price for us, he left us with the instruction to Go and make disciples of all the nations. Our kingdom assignment is to go and make disciples so that God’s agenda can be perpetuated on earth (Matthew 28:18‑20).
I want to challenge us to live for more than the material things of life. It’s time to Dream for More! Believe for More! Decide for More! Live for More! Make Disciples of All Nations! Lead or Join a
Missional Community as you commence your journey into Maximum Impact! Read and meditate on the following scripture revealing that you are MADE FOR MORE;
Isaiah 60:22 (TPT). “I will multiply the least of you into a thousand and the weakest
one into a mighty nation. I am Yahweh, and when the right time
comes, I will accomplish it swiftly!”
THIS IS THE RIGHT TIME!

A Workman That Needs Not be Ashamed
Humble beginnings ‑ named as such, so that you may remember there was a time you didn’t have it altogether.
A time when you sweated and toiled to attain perfection or maybe it was success in your case. A time you had wondered if you would ever become a mastermind; a pro that others look up to. You had look at your mentors and wondered if you would be like them ‑ a person that can create a masterpiece, whilst reaching their prime.
That is when you realised that you were not ashamed of the work you had to do. The vision you had kept you going; so, you had burned the candles and persisted through the challenges and kept at it despite the many failures.
Now look at you! You’ve become someone else’s inspiration because you applied 2 Timothy 2:15 (NKJV) verse teaching. You were a workman that put shame aside knowing fully well that you
must meet your goals.“ Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does
not need to be ashamed…”
If you’re still in the beginning phase, I’m telling you to put aside your shame and do the work you have to do to get to where you want to be (as long as it doesn’t soil your integrity).
BIBLICAL POETRY
I know what to do
A light has been shone on my path.
I have sought the face of God
He has told me what to do
He has revealed the path I should thread
They said God’s plans isn’t what I need at the moment
But I know better
I know God has a plan for me
I know his plans are good!
I know God’s plans for me is exactly what I need to be
happy
He has opened my eyes to see where I should be
I know what to do!!!
But God still lay your hands upon me
Stay with me on this journey
Reveal more of myself to me
Remove from me what doesn’t help your ministry
Forward my steps into the mission you set forth for me
To create change that reaches out to others.
God keep my mind open
Keep me in a space where I don’t constrict myself
Because of past experiences
But instead propel me
As I act on the plan you’ve set before me.
2 Corinthians 4:17‑18
